Mixed times

I’m sure that every generation has this feeling of time flying by and getting mixed up in one big memory soup. But with the digital world adding literally tons of information every day, this surely must be faster times than ever.

So … it’s rather nice to be able to capture some of that time span in one picture. Bits of personal history and present time mixed in a colourful palette.

Let’s see: a Delta Dagger, it being state of the art half a century ago and the sound of full afyer burner take offs howling somewhere in the back of my mind. And a DAF artillery towing truck, going back to my time in the field artillery. And the most modern museum facade forming a mirror for me and Christine in present times. With blue skies mingling with a faded Dakota shining through the windows. The only thing missing was psychedelic music floating around us.

And again I would have loved to challenge my grandfather to see if he also thought like this. And that for that generation indeed things moved as fast. Or is it just my mind, boiling over with impressions and thoughts.
